Hadoop QA commented on HADOOP-988: ---------------------------------- +1, because http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/attachment/12354892/HADOOP-988-5.patch applied and successfully tested against trunk revision http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/hadoop/trunk/525290. Results are at http://lucene.zones.apache.org:8080/hudson/job/Hadoop-Patch > Namenode should use single map for block to its meta data. > ---------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-988 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-988 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: dfs > Reporter: Raghu Angadi > Assigned To: Raghu Angadi > Fix For: 0.13.0 > > Attachments: HADOOP-988-1.patch, HADOOP-988-3.patch, > HADOOP-988-4.patch, HADOOP-988-5.patch > > > This is a follow up from HADOOP-803. Currently there two maps which have > similar functionality : > 1) blockMap : maps block to list of datanodes that contain the block > 2) activeBlocks : maps block to INode that it blongs to. > Apart from simplifying, it saves 32 bytes per block and 24 bytes by avoid > extra block object we currently have for files that exist before Namenode > starts (see HADOOP-803). > We could combine these two into something like block to { containingNodes, > INode, etc }. > Another option is to get Move INode and list of dataNodes into Block object. > Another option that requires bigger change is not use Block object but just > 64 bit BlockId. Then the map would be BlockId to all the block related info. > I will file another Jira regd not using Block object in NameNode. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
